The Foundation

Established in 1967 as a not-for-profit corporation, the Herkimer County College Foundation, Inc. helps the College secure resources that allow us to continually enhance the quality of our offerings and provide life-changing opportunities for students. By supporting the Herkimer County College Foundation, our donors enable us to award more scholarships, address the College’s most important priorities, and transform the futures of individual students and the College as a whole.

The Herkimer County College Foundation has developed and supports over 80 scholarships and scholarship programs that award more than $130,000 annually to eligible students. Grants are also awarded each year to faculty and staff for ongoing professional development and independent research.
